Death Breath is a Swedish death metal band featuring Robert Pehrsson (Thunder Express/Dundertåget) and Nicke Andersson, formerly of the death metal band Entombed, who wanted to return to playing drums and death metal. The members of the band are both members of other bands but do not consider Death Breath to be a side project.[1] The band was formed in 2005 and was originally intended to be named Black Breath but to the band's surprise the name Death Breath had never been used by a metal band.[2] The band consider their music to be pure death metal, free from seven-string guitars, five-string basses and triggered drums.[3] The band's music is influenced by Slayer, Venom, Black Sabbath, Autopsy, Celtic Frost as well as old horror movies[2] and HP Lovecraft.
